The Who were one of the most popular and influential rock groups of the 1960s and 1970s.Ā Revered by fans, they became a world-class act, securingĀ their longevity with sensational live performances andĀ pioneering music.Ā
From their early days as The Detours, they evolved,Ā emerging at the vanguard of the UK Mod movement asĀ The Who.

Never more so thanĀ with their 1965 hit āMy Generation,āāits lyrics of youthfulĀ rebellion resounding as the anthem of its time.Ā

Through the triumphs of Pete TownshendāsĀ ambitious creations in rock operas Tommy andĀ Quadrophenia, to Roger Daltreyās forays into film andĀ television, and the tragic death of first, Keith Moon,Ā and then John Entwistle.
